Everybody has a secret world inside of them. All of the people of the world,
I mean everybody. No matter how dull and boring they are on the outside,
inside them they've all got unimaginable, magnificent, wonderful, stupid,
amazing worlds. Not just one world. Hundreds of them. Thousands maybe. -

About Me

Hi. My name is Hannah Sherwood, and I am a User Experience Designer. I love setting up problem spaces and designing solutions that are useful, usable, and delightful.

I recently graduated with my MS in Information Management from the University of Washington. In school, I studied and practiced both quantitative and qualitative design techniques, including surveys, interviews, contextual inquiry, personas, scenarios, prototyping, and usability testing. I also studied methods for organizing information resources, such as taxonomies and metadata, as well as methods for creating information structures, such as XML.

For my master's thesis, I worked with the Group Health Research Institute to design an interactive health care visualization tool. I have also completed internships with Microsoft Research and Costco's IT department.
